Create an Account and Open the User Panel
Use the “First Month Free” button below to open the VPNYD account creation page. You only need a username and password—no email address required. Choose a username you’ll remember and set a unique password you don’t use on other sites. After submitting the form, follow the prompts to open the panel. If you’re taken to a sign-in page, log in with the credentials you just saved.
Once you’re in the panel, find the Account Overview, Plans, and Client Downloads sections. Use them to check your subscription status, choose a data allowance, and get the software for your devices. If you haven’t activated a plan yet, it’s normal for the overview to show no active subscription. There’s no need to install a client or look for a subscription link yet. Choose a plan first so you’ll have an active profile to import.
Save your credentials in a password manager, and make sure you’re visiting the VPNYD site. Use the same account when you switch devices; you don’t need a separate account for each one. VPNYD allows unlimited simultaneous devices, but keep your account credentials and subscription link secure. If you see an error while creating your account, check the information you entered against the on-screen instructions. For account questions, visit the Help Center rather than submitting the same form repeatedly.
Choose a Plan and Check Your Order Status
Once your account is ready, open the Plans section in the panel. Consider how you’ll use the service: a monthly plan may suit frequent access to international websites and ongoing use of collaboration apps; a data package may be a better fit for occasional use if you want unused data to remain available. Plans mainly differ in data allowance and billing terms, not the number of devices you can use at once. All plans support unlimited devices, so estimate data use across all your devices, not just your computer.
Monthly plans: ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, and ¥28/month for 500GB. Monthly data resets on your activation date, not at the start of each calendar month. If you upgrade mid-cycle, the price difference is prorated for the remaining days. Data packages: ¥158 for 300GB, ¥358 for 1000GB, and ¥658 for 3000GB. They last until used and never expire. If you’re not sure which option fits, compare the details in the full plan guide before choosing in the panel. Don’t decide on price alone.
Select a plan, then review the amount, data allowance, and billing terms on the order confirmation page. Complete payment using the Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT option shown. If you switch apps during payment, check the order status when you return to the panel; don’t create another order just because the page hasn’t updated yet. Move on to getting your profile only after the account overview shows an active subscription. If the payment result and account status don’t match, keep your order details and explain the issue in a panel support ticket.
VPNYD offers a 14-day no-questions-asked refund. See the Terms of Service for the applicable request rules. This guide covers the setup sequence; creating an order does not mean the subscription is active. Use the status shown in the panel to confirm that your client and subscription are available.
Get Your Subscription and Prepare the Client
Return to the account overview and find the subscription section. The subscription link gives your client access to route configuration; it is not a website address for everyday browsing. First check whether the panel offers an import option for your client. If it does, use it to send the link to the installed client. To import manually, copy the full link using the panel’s copy button, then paste it into the client.
Next, open Client Downloads in the panel and choose your device’s platform. Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux are supported; this page focuses on the most common desktop and mobile platforms. You must be signed in and have an active subscription to access the client. Public guide pages do not provide direct download links. If you don’t see a download option, check your subscription status in the overview. Don’t download an app with the same name from an unfamiliar website.
Don’t share your subscription link in group chats or public forums, or include it in screenshots. It isn’t an ordinary web address to pass along: it may contain credentials tied to your account. When importing, keep the entire link intact, including its beginning, end, and any query parameters. The example below only illustrates the link format. It’s a dummy value and cannot be used to connect to VPNYD. Always use the link from your own panel.
https://example.com/sub?token=YOUR_TOKEN“Copied” only means the link is on your clipboard; it doesn’t mean the client has loaded any routes. Next, add the subscription, update it, and confirm that a route list appears in the profile. If the client can’t retrieve the configuration, first check that the link is complete, then see the subscription guide in the Help Center. If the issue persists, follow the subscription update steps in Troubleshooting.
Import on Your Platform and Enable the Profile
The client reads your subscription, lets you choose a route, and establishes the connection. Browser extensions, built-in system VPN settings, and subscription-compatible clients are different ways to connect. Don’t paste a subscription link into your system’s server address field. Install a compatible client from the panel or follow its download instructions, then use the steps for your platform. Menus may be labeled “Configuration,” “Subscription,” or “Profiles”; look for the option to add a profile from a link.
Windows: Add a Link from the Configuration Menu
In the panel, choose a Windows client that supports subscription profiles and install it. Open the main window, go to configuration or subscription management, and select “Add,” “Import from URL,” or a similar option. Paste the subscription link copied from the panel. Give it a recognizable name, such as VPNYD, save it, and update the profile. When the route list appears, set this profile as the active one, then open the route selection menu.
After choosing a route, enable the system proxy as instructed by the client. If your connection method requires extra permissions or a virtual network connection, follow the prompts. Don’t let multiple clients manage your network at the same time. For your first test, visit the target website in a browser and confirm the basic connection works before testing desktop apps. Startup at boot is optional and not required for the first connection. For setup instructions, see Windows Setup from Scratch.
macOS: Import a Profile and Approve Network Access
Download a subscription-compatible macOS client from the panel. If macOS asks for permission to add a network extension or VPN connection when you first open it, make sure the prompt refers to the client you just installed, then grant access as instructed. Go to the profile list and import the subscription from a URL or link. Save and refresh. Some clients open a confirmation window for external imports; check the profile name and source before confirming.
Once the import is complete, enable the profile, choose a route, and connect. The menu bar status icon can show whether the client is running, but its appearance alone doesn’t confirm that traffic is reaching its destination. If a website works in your browser but not in another app, first check how that app connects to the network rather than repeatedly changing subscriptions. See the troubleshooting guide for more on app proxy coverage. You can skip advanced rules during initial setup.
Android: Add a Subscription and Allow VPN Access
Use the Android client link in the panel to get an app that supports subscription profiles. Install and open it, then go to profile management. Choose the option to add a link, paste the full subscription URL, save it, and tap Update or Refresh. If the panel offers one-tap import, make sure the link opens in the intended client. After importing, check that a route list appears; don’t rely on the dialog simply closing.
Choose a profile and route, then connect. The first time Android asks to set up a VPN connection, check the app name and allow the client to connect. The connection icon indicates that the system has established a network connection, but you still need to test a website or app. Keep the client in the foreground during the first test. Once it works, switch apps. If the connection drops in the background, check background operation settings in the Help Center; there’s no need to change every battery setting during initial setup.
iOS: Get a Compatible Client from the Panel
Choose the iOS option in the panel and follow its App Store link to get a compatible subscription client. Don’t try to install files meant for other platforms. In the client, open the subscription or configuration section and use the add-subscription option to paste the link. If your version asks you to choose a “Type,” select the subscription type specified in the panel’s instructions rather than adding the link as an individual server.
Save and update the subscription. Once the routes appear, choose one and turn on the connection. If iOS asks to allow a VPN configuration, follow the device prompts. Check the connection status in the client, then test the app you want to use. Seeing a VPN entry in system settings only confirms that a profile was added; verify the connection by testing access. For more detail on the menus, follow the current client instructions in the panel.
Linux and Additional Devices: Follow the Same Setup Flow
On Linux, get the appropriate client from the panel or check its compatibility instructions. Follow the same sequence: add the subscription, update the profile, choose a route, and connect. Don’t expose account credentials in terminal commands. You can use the same account to get a subscription on other devices; VPNYD allows unlimited simultaneous devices. Client settings are saved separately on each device, while total usage counts toward the relevant plan. Verify the current device before adding others, making it easier to tell subscription issues from device settings.
Verify the Connection and Check the Traffic Path
After importing, confirm that the active profile is the VPNYD one you just added and that the route list isn’t left over from an older profile. Choose a route, connect in the client, and enable the system proxy or VPN connection feature required by your platform. For the first test, keep the client’s recommended defaults. Don’t change DNS, rules, and connection mode at the same time; fewer variables make it easier to pinpoint issues.
Next, reopen the target website or quit and relaunch the app. Check whether the page loads, sign-in works, and you can complete the task you came to do. If the client provides connection logs, check whether requests to the target are using the proxy route. If the service displays an exit region, compare it with the region of your selected route. Some services show your account region, content region, or cached information instead; don’t assume these indicate your current exit location. A page loading successfully also doesn’t prove that every app uses the same route.
After confirming browser access, test the apps you actually need. For AI tools, check that a request gets a response; for collaboration software, make sure a session connects; for streaming, confirm that the content plays. Account eligibility, regional restrictions, and service status can all affect results. A working network connection doesn’t guarantee access to all content. Testing your real use case is more useful than relying on the client’s “Connected” status alone.
If things don’t work as expected, check each step in order: Is the subscription active? Did the profile update successfully? Have you selected a route? Is the connection turned on? Is the target app using the current connection method? You can try another route for comparison, but change only one setting at a time. For issues such as “connected but can’t open sites,” “an app isn’t using the proxy,” or background disconnections, follow the relevant steps in Troubleshooting. This guide doesn’t cover every advanced setting.
Once the connection works, keep the working profile and note your platform and client name. Update the subscription as directed in the panel. To get help, open a support ticket in the user panel with your device platform, client, selected route, the step where the issue occurred, and any error message. If you attach a screenshot, hide your credentials. Never send your full subscription link or password. That completes the main setup flow: account, order, subscription, and device connection.
